They Say The Neon Lights Are Bright... on Broad Street?

Phillyist still isn't used to it being pitch black when the work day is over, but the folks at the Center City District are giving us a night light, for this evening at least. Five buildings along the Avenue of the Arts (from City Hall down to Pine) will be lit up like a movie starlet's makeup mirror. These "murals of art" aren't all though: there will be entertainment on the Avenue as well as restaurant booths selling their wares at reduced cost (which is really the only way we'll be eating at Bliss on a random weeknight). The kick-off ceremony takes place at 5:30 in front of the Bellevue, but the food and entertainment run from 5-8.

If you miss out tonight, don't worry: Matt Johnson should have pictures for us later in the week.
